WASHINGTON PARK PLAYGROUND MEMORIAL BRICKS
THE PERFECT WAY TO HONOR A LOVED ONE

Springfield –The Washington Park Playground Memorial Bricks are available again.  Due to increased interest and a desire to keep this special gift available all year long we are accepting orders once again.  Placing a brick in the playground is a fun and exciting way to memorialize your family, child, grandchild, special friend, pet, personal motto or memory, favorite song or saying for countless years to come.  Children love to find their special brick and show it off to others.  It truly is a lifetime gift.

The Springfield Parks Foundation is selling the bricks that are available in two sizes: 4” x 8” brick with a maximum of 3 lines (14 characters per line) for $100 or 8” x 8” brick with a maximum of 6 lines (14 characters per line) for $250.
